Empathic approach
Barbara Messing, CEO Tripadvisor Quote from interview….
http://mashable.com/2015/12/21/tripadvisor-cmo-marketing/#Qao26KrDLSqq
”I …tell myself to always understand the customer you're targeting. What do they need? What are their motivations? What are their fears and pain points that you can overcome? As an online company with such a high volume of traffic, we have so many sources of data to tap into, but if we don't also stay focused on the customer as a real individual, we're not capitalizing on our most important data source”.

The tourist’s digital
journey
The tourists’ digital journey is based on the media agency OMD’s ECO system, which views the journey of the consumer as a series of stages towards a final purchase. OMD’s model has been devel-oped for brands, but parallels can be drawn to the choice of destination. The model describes only the consumer’s choice of holiday destination.

Content Planning and the ongoing content work

Kristina Halvorson (2012): Content Strategy for the Web, 2nd edition
“Content is not a feature. It is a complex, ever-evolving, intricate body of information that requires ongoing care and feeding. It’s not something you can check off on a list and be done with.”

It is not just about getting tasks done, it is very much about managing people. A repeatable workflow ensures that you get things done and that people are aligned and know who does what.
Establish a workflow
1. Gather your stakeholders: Write down the roles and colleagues who participate in creating and launching your content.
2. Document your distribution points: These can include your owned channels and social media accounts, as well as the software tools and internal collaboration systems that are part of your distribution process.
3. Align your process with your people: The goal is to marry the roles with the tasks that need to be completed.
4. Set/adjust your schedule: Deadlines are necessary to establish accountability. They should include some flexibility so they can be shifted to reflect your organization’s reality.

9 tips for content planning
1. Create a buyer persona to identify their content needs
Done!
2. Research & Ideate
• Gather ideas from across your organization
• Get inspiration from user generated content
• Use what you already have - use a content inventory to get an overview of existing content
• Use keyword search - how does people find you?
• Buy magazines your audience would read
• Identify thought leaders in your niche and use them as a source of content
3. Create themes to categorize your content
4. Identify content pillars
A content pillar is a substantive and informative work on a specific topic or theme that can be broken into many derivative pieces of content and distributed to multiple channels. A content pillar can be an eBook, report, guide, long video, or any significant (meaning large and thorough) content asset.
https://community.kapost.com/kapost/topics/creating-content-pillars
• Make sure you know what you want your audience to do with your content: Do you want them to book, browse, engage, get inspired or head over to your website?
5. Set clear goals for your content
6. Have editorial meetings
Agenda:
1. Unanswered questions
2. Planned content – what do we need?
3. Evaluation of content performance
4. Evaluation of user feedback
5. New ideas for content, repost of user content etc.
7. Move ideas to your calendar and plan ahead
